Head
Theme played on trumpet, with tenor sax, playing an ocatve lower. Chords not on down betas to give elusive sense of pulse. Use 7ths, 9ths, 11ths and 13ths and chromatic harmonies. Use of alteration. short motif briefly developed the subsituted with new idea.
Chorus 1
Trumpet often plays away from basic chord progression - dissonent counterpoint. Use of walking bass in piano.. Subtle inflections of pitch played by double bass.
Chorus 2
Trumpet solo, vertuosic playing. Ghost not played in first beat of first bar, almost unaudable. Uses same chrod progression as all the other choruses.
Chorus 3
All choruses have a very improvisational feel, the song itself would vary in length everythime it was played.
Chorus 4
Trumpet uses half valve, a very difficult technique.
